Tours leave early in the morning and reach the beach 1h30 later. But it&#8217;s the best option if you&#8217;re afraid of using tiny speedboats. You&#8217;ll arrive in Playa Neguanje then you&#8217;ll have to take a 10-min boat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How to get to Playa Cristal by boat<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s a lot faster, but the boat ride is bumpy during the windy season. It can be scary if you&#8217;re not used to it.

It opens earlier, and there are no special formalities to enter the park. However, you still have to pay your park entry fee!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moreover, it\u2019s the closest entrance to Playa Brava. This secluded beach allows you to spend the night and have meals. It\u2019s very rarely visited by tourists. The next day, a path leads you to Cabo San Juan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Playa Brava<\/strong> <strong>can be part of a great loop,<\/strong> doable in one day if you&#8217;re an avid hiker and short on time.
